CHAPTER ELEVEN

Steamy water from the hot shower pelted against Kalena’s skin. She closed her eyes and glided the sponge across her body. With Thane out hunting, her mind kept returning to the recently extracted memories. She wanted the memories, but these weren’t the type of memories one could just turn on and off when they wanted to. These memories were a bad reminder of what she’d been through and the decisions she’d made.

The shower stall fogged up with steam. Her sweat—and maybe even a few tears—mingled with the water cascading down over her hair and over her face. She wanted to wash the pain away. She wanted to wash Gavril’s touches from her body. The memories had encouraged others to rise to the surface and were now very much a part of her train of thought. What bothered her was that her last encounter with Gavril had been just a few weeks prior to her being thrown into Area S2. She almost wondered if her avoiding his calls shortly thereafter had anything to do with his complete three-hundred-sixty-degree change of attitude towards her. Probably not. She’d seen the self-serving egotistical side of Gavril before. Something told her that Gavril would’ve made the same decision to save his ass so that he could continue creating his human-killer drug.

Kalena dug her nails into the sponge and squeezed hard. She wished she’d picked up on his shady business before. Would she have told anyone? Who would she have confided in? Heck, she hadn’t even known that Gavril was part of the shifter community. The dealings involving the secret drug were happening every day around her at the very company she worked for.

Suddenly, a cold draft slithered across her wet skin. Before she turned, she caught the scent of sandalwood in the humid air and knew without a doubt that Thane had entered the small bathroom.

Kalena turned to acknowledge him, and even through the thick steam clouding up the bathroom, she could see that he was naked.

A few seconds passed, and then he strolled towards the shower, slid back the door, and entered the small space with her.

“You’re worried,” Thane whispered, dipping his head low to kiss her shoulder.

“I’ve been thinking.”

“I never intended to discourage you from finding out what happened, but I don’t like seeing you unhappy,” he said.

“I’m always happy with you,” she countered.

“Then why did you threaten to leave me before?”

“Doesn’t it repulse you that I…” She couldn’t finish. She couldn’t bring herself to say his name one more time.

“Don’t…” he said quietly. “From this night forward, I am the only man who should invade your thoughts. I want your thoughts to be happy…always.”

Thane took the sponge from her, held it under the water, and then massaged it across her body gently.

“Is this understood?” he asked.

“Yes.” She swallowed when his fingers brushed against her nipples. “But what about you…do I make you happy? Can I?”

Trembles raced up and down her spine as he massaged her. In the process, he dropped the sponge and now used his fingers and firm palms to work her tense muscles.
